    Description

    1908-D Saint Gaudens Gold Double Eagle No Motto PCGS MS63 PQ++
    Only 663,750 were minted, many were melted down and never circulated. To find high grade No Motto Denver Mint coinage is nearly impossible.
    Created by master sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the 1908-D Gold Saint Gaudens is the descendant of the Liberty Double Eagle which first entered circulation in 1850. The denomination was created as a means of exhausting an overage in gold supply due to the 1849 California Gold Rush. They were never intended for general use in commerce as the amount easily equated to a month's wage during the time of issue - making them impractical to carry as a coin. Instead, they were struck to monetize the surplus of gold and to be used exclusively in business transactions, largely between banks.
